Abstract

The original intent of this thesis was twofold: First, to adapt the dropping pellet method of determining melting points to the determination of the melting points of various binary mixtures of Halowax 1014 and natural waxes. This work follows up the investigation of Kroening who used the ball and ring method of determining the melting points of mixtures of various Halowaxes and natural waxes. Second, to attempt to ascertain whether there are formed in these binary mixtures chemical compounds which would account for their peculiar behavior as regards melting points.
